You’ll inevitably find a weapon from a fallen enemy or inside a container you might want, but the pre-installed weapon mods prove most ineffective. Sure, you could sell it. But then you’re out a potentially robust and customizable rifle. Your other option is to bring said weapon to a workbench and learn how to remove weapon mods in Starfield so that you can make it your own. We recommend the latter. You’ll wind up with a potentially powerful rifle or revolver, which won’t cost you much.
Removing Weapon Mods in Starfield
First, to remove weapon mods in Starfield, visit a Weapon Workbench, like the one in the basement of Constellation. Alternatively, you’re able to build on at an outpost or buy a hab piece with one for your spaceship.
In any case, once you have a Weapon Workbench before you, select the weapon you want to alter,choose the mod in question, and finally select “No Mod” for that slot. Unfortunately, you will need a few resources to install the “No Mod” option.
Alternatively, you can select the new weapon mod you want to install and equip it instead of the old one. Again, you will require specific resources.
Recommended Weapon Mods to Install
Instead of whatever dopey mod that came equipped on your latest weapon, here are a few we recommend.
Once you learn to removeweapon modsin Starfield, then go ahead and install these:
With your new weapon fully unequipped of any unwanted weapon mods and prepped for the new modifications, you should be raring to go, looking for a fight!
To help you in your next combat encounter, besides this ultra-powerful weapon you’re wielding, learning tocombat slidecan make a significant difference!
